Quatermass 2
While researching for his moon colonisation programme, Professor Quatermass (Brian Donlevy) is intrigued by the strange readings his radar is picking up.
Director: Val Guest
Overview
Adapted from the second of the Quatermass BBC series, Brian Donlevy delivers another iconic performance as Kneale's signature character, in a film that captures the low budget/high concept brilliance of 1950s British sci-fi. With alien life once again threatening planet Earth, this time from our own moon, Quatermass 2 manages to up the stakes to nuclear proportions.
